Single speed 'cross frame for Kansas

Inspite of the disc tab on the dropout slider that you see in the photo, this is not a disc brake frame. The inserts are installed for building purposes. The final inserts will look a little different-simpler and no disc tab.

This is a dedicated single speed 'cross frame for a tapered steerer fork and it is going to Leawood, Kansas-the middle of the country. There have been a few National CX races in Kansas City over the years so there is a bit of a scene out there- It can get really cold.

My hope is that the owner of this frame will find it suitable for the type of terrain and climate of the area. I'm not sure how the bike will handle a tornado.....might be a bit light for that.
